They all developed mad panic attacks, planned all sorts of orders "in case" and grew about 10 times the flowers actually needed. In all 5 cases there were jokes about cutting the number of guests so there was enough flower space in the church and at the reception! You'll do fine.

The panel suggested annuals and perennials, but also to have a back-up plan and use bought flowers as well if necessary, just to make sure the pressure of our unpredictable weather doesn't become too much! <br />Good luck - what a lovely thing to do.<br />Best wishes<br />Ellie Ellie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12437259693600577503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574800003825292845.post-21178997163730306272017-01-19T13:47:19.546+00:002017-01-19T13:47:19.546+00:00I am anxious - and I will be a nervous wreck as th...I am anxious - and I will be a nervous wreck as the day approaches.....Alison Leveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15234997684400583491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574800003825292845.post-59270801177274524292017-01-19T13:46:51.498+00:002017-01-19T13:46:51.498+00:00Thanks- I shall need luck :)Thanks- I shall need luck :)Alison Leveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15234997684400583491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574800003825292845.post-68387436115429605812017-01-19T12:17:28.847+00:002017-01-19T12:17:28.847+00:00Good luck, I'm going to watch with fascination...Good luck, I'm going to watch with fascination!Archie The Wonder Doghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16348256617269963755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574800003825292845.post-25887923723410017682017-01-19T10:58:10.182+00:002017-01-19T10:58:10.182+00:00This will be terrifying.
